Dealing with the filesystem is complex. Some helpers could probably be
added, but with a series dedicated to the filesystem. I can work on that
once this series is merged.

It should not, only a bogus kernel code could.

An LSM can be marked as enabled (at boot) but not yet initialized.

It is a condition for LSM hooks, syscalls and superblock management.
